PLEASE NOTE: When Parliament was dissolved for the federal election of May 2, 2011, Bill C-389, after being passed at third reading by the House of Commons, died on the order paper before being passed by the Senate. The NDP Official Opposition has reintroduced the bill as Bill C-279. This site is now archived. We invite you to visit the new site at http://billc279.wordpress.com/ .

Transgender, transsexual, and gender-variant people suffer extremely high rates of discrimination and violence. But they’re not yet explicitly protected from discrimination anywhere in Canada except the Northwest Territories.
